Place & story

House, returns and stable

The architectural inventory dates Springhill House to about 1800. Its two-storey front has five bays, with rear wings of different lengths extending to the north-east and north-west. A separate stable building to the north is assigned the same approximate date as the house. An outbuilding attached at the rear is dated later, to around 1850. [2]
